For all of the 'hard-hitting, scrappy and independent Chicago news hounds' - that would be John Kass and Tim Novak. How about a bit of 'investigative work' on Billy Ayers and community organizer Presidential would -be Barack Obama?
Let's root out the connection. Before you say that there is none - let's take a look at what is out in the public eye.
Here is the time-line for Barack Obama and his 'guy from the neighborhood' with the drag to close a University of Illinois Chicago library to an investigative journalist - Billy Boy Ayers.
1987 William Ayers meets Barack Obama
1988 Ayers solicits Khalid Al-Mansour to raise money for Obama's Harvard law School education
1989 Tom Ayers and William Ayers get Obama a summer job at Sidley & Austin (where he meets Michelle Obama); Ayers' wife Bernadine Dohrn also worked at Sidley at about the same time as Barack and Michelle.
1993 Ayers places Obama on Woods Foundation
1995 Ayers makes Obama Chairman of Annenberg Challenge
1995 Ayers hosts a coffee klatch for Obama's political debut (Obama falsely claims this is when he met Ayers)
2007-2008 The structure of Obama's presidential campaign increasingly comes to resemble an Ayers-designed national "community organizer matrix" straight out of Maoist theory. This is not merely a presidential "campaign." Obama's organization is the first installment of an ongoing movement being paid for with tax-exempt contributions to his campaign, approaching half a billion dollars.
2008Obama In response to ABC News, Obama tells a national TV audience he was "six years old" when Ayers bombed federal buildings, and they are only casual neighborhood acquaintances. A lie.
Okay, gritty news-hounds! Let's take the leash off! William Ayers has long been a conduit for Revolution through Hugo Chavez. Ayers 'adopted' kid works for Chavez. The Woods Fund records would be a nice source to follow the moeny from Woods Fund to 'community organizers' to Hugo Chavez* - the Man with Chevron Gas Stations right on South Western Ave. at about 49th Street! I'll bet that some COMMUNITY ORGANIZER - got the start up for that gas station and that it can be traced through the community developent LISC to Woods. BTW- try and track down any Chevron listings for Chicago. Go to work, newsies. Oh, that's right. Not allowed.
Americans will face Chinese and Russian made military aircraft in the Wetern Hemisphere. On Friday, I hope McCain goes for Obama's doughy belly on South America.
* El Jefe: Hugo Chavez - Venezuela will buy combat and training aircraft from China this week, leftist Venezuela President Hugo Chavez confirmed in a television broadcast Sunday. The purchases will be made as part of a six-country tour, Chavez said in his broadcast of the "Alo President" television program from the Miraflores presidential palace in Caracas, hours before leaving on a "strategic interest" trip to Cuba, China, Russia, Belarus, France and Portugal.
Chavez, a staunch foe of the US government, confirmed that during his stay in Beijing he will purchase 24 K-8 aircraft "to train fighter pilots." The planes could be part of Venezuela's air force by next year.
The president also confirmed that while in Beijing he will arrange the construction of tanker vessels in Chinese shipyards, with the aim of installing a shipyard in Venezuela in the near future.
These plans come in addition to the construction of a refinery in China to process oil from Venezuela, and plans to create a bi-national company to install a refinery in the remote oil-rich Orinoco region in eastern Venezuela.
Caracas provides 500,000 barrels of oil per day to Beijing, a trade which is expected to increase to one million barrels a day by 2012.
Chavez, who describes China as a strategic ally, will move forward with a six billion dollar bilateral investment fund. China will contribute four billion dollars to the fund, and Venezuela two billion dollars.
Caracas will use the fund for "socialist productive projects."
"Before we had to go to Washington to beg for money. Not now. Now we negotiate with the Chinese," said Chavez.
Chavez announced that during his visit to Beijing the investment fund will benefit from an additional four billion dollars for further "development" in Venezuela.
After China, Chavez will head to Moscow.
Venezuela in recent years has been broadening its military ties to Moscow, and Chavez backed Russia in the recent Georgian conflict.
Last week, Russian supersonic Tu-160 bombers for the first time flew training runs with Venezuela in an area of the Caribbean traditionally considered the US military's sphere of influence.
Chavez's trip is expected to last until September 27.

I think they sized him us as a glad-handing big-smiling political frontman from day one.
But I’ll bet in their wildest dreams they never thought he’d never make it this far.
Nope, I think you are dead on target.
Didn’t Hillary tell the Media that there was somekind of a relationship between Ayers and Obama? And if she didn’t keep pressing it the Republican’s sure would?
I seem to remember hearing that but I can’t seem to find it here?
It is starting to look like the month of October is not going to be kind for Obama. Pray Jerome Corsi returns safely from London this weekend, he just told Sean Hannity he has evidence Obama was very involved with Odinga as recently as New Hampshire... he has emails he is bringing back.
I am praying this leads to the end of this clown forever. If so we better be on the look out for the next empty suit ready to undermine our country.
I remember her saying that but wonder why SHE never followed up? A lot of things I read earlier are now missing.
That is even scarier. I kept telling myself I must be losing it to think this was all connected and Obama was chosen a long time ago as a front to lead the radicals into power in the most powerful country in the world. As a Columbia student, you just don't get involved with Bill Ayers out of all the people in NY -- it made no sense.
Only thing that makes sense is if he was introduced into all of this by Davis in Hawaii a long time ago and he made the connections for him.
I think you are right about the past 30 years and this was a trial baloon because he even told people it was too soon to run. What caused the change.
My bet is that this goes back to Hawaii, Davis, and his radical family bordering on Communism back then. What do we know about his time in High School at an expensive high school when his family did not have the money? Who financed his education?
So many questions and so little time to get all the answers.
Think the whole lid is about to come off and the MSM will never recover from hiding all of this from the American people.
I agree. If they had known he’d get this far, they would have made sure he kept greater distance from Ayers, Wright etc.
I’d love to put Ayers and Obama under truth serum.
You and me both and think we would find that Obama is the front for the 60’s radicals takeover of this Country. Whoever hatched this plan has been quietly getting the pieces together. I watched some You Tube of Dohrn yesterday and she seemed to be the real leader.
Wonder what the Corsi interview is going to reveal?
Chevron? Shouldn't that be "Citgo" instead?
Regarding his radical family, that reminds me of a Freeper who posted about racial reasons they would not vote for Obama. It was his white side they are against. If that is racial then so be it. I agree and if I get another chance to share with some black folks I run into I will not hesitate to say the above.
Michelle worked with Bernadette.
From your lips...
I wondered about Chevron because I thought it was Citgo too but I never checked. Now I did check — Chevron is under Chavez thumb in Venezuela:
MAY 15, 2006
You’re Working For Chávez Now
The Venezuelan president is squeezing global players, but few are squealing
What’s it like to do business in the global capital of oil nationalism? Most international oil executives in Caracas don’t want to speak on the record about the tricky game of dealing with Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez. But one executive confides that this has been a brutal year. The low point came on Mar. 31 when he was required to attend a ceremony at the Miraflores presidential palace, where Chávez took pleasure in bringing representatives of the world’s oil elite — companies such as Chevron (CVX ), Royal YPF Dutch Shell (RDSA ), BP (BP ), and Repsol (REP ) — to heel. The occasion: the signing of documents that gave the state control over much of Big Oil’s existing production in Venezuela. “It left a bad taste in my mouth,” says the executive, adding that his child caught sight of him on TV and remarked to a friend: “My dad is angry. I’d better not go home.”

I noticed McCain mentioned her last night with Hannity, although not by name but as “his wife” while referring to Ayers. If Michelle—myHell knew and worked with her, caching! Barack can’t say he didn’t know her, maybe even well, and that he didn’t know her history. As I recall it she was the “hot” woman in their group (not surprisingly, how many good looking women would waste their time with losers and the rubble that hung out with SDS).
Ca-ching.
It looks like the ties for Michelle Robinson Obama and Dohrn should be looked at because it looks like Dohrn got her the job at the law firm.
People forget that Michelle’s father worked for the City of Chicago and was a precinct chair with walking around money on election day.
